Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations very quickly.
You should know though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Ashton - Wrong Fuel in Car Ashton
I had a perfect afternoon hiking during my holiday and felt pleased the next morning as I set off to assist a new family who were away in Ashton. They'd stopped after adding diesel in their winter grey Honda Civic GX, and were about an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the girl telling off her husband for being so confused. "Just how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this occurs quite frequently in Hampshire and that it is nothing to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyways, I removed all the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed good bye and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the very same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Ashton - Fuel Rescue Ashton
This was certainly the night shift. It was about sunrise and noone was about. It had been pretty dead until now, and Paul and I were relaxing browsing a couple of old newspapers. It was a rare calm moment in Hampshire. It was indeed so calm that the moment the phone ultimately rang I jumped! The customer stated: "I've just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel khaki green Toyota MR2 by mistake". I got him to tell us just where the car was and we headed out, ending up in Ashton under 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for showing up so rapidly. As we were heading back to base we spotted two young women at the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. So we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.
